Career Profile

Inspired by my grandfather who was a Sea Bee in the Navy, I took a keen interest in engineering from a young age. I attended a vocational high school where I enrolled in the pre-engineering program, and learned about design, drafting, programming, physics, and aeronautics. After graduating high school, I attended the University of Central Florida to pursue a degree in Industrial Engineering. Towards the end of my college career, I went to work for a small start-up software company where I started in a data entry position, and quickly advanced through multiple positions to unltimately start working in software. Largely self-taught and gaining experience and practice as I went along, I ultimately became the VP of Product Development, working to not only design and build software, but also architect cloud-based solutions and organize projects.
